New York is well represented with  regimental monuments on the slope of Culp's Hill. One of the most artistic is the one honoring the 123rd New York Infantry. Standing alongside the remains of breastworks recaptured from the Confederates by the unit on the morning of July 3, the monument features a large granite statue entitled "History Recording". Representing Clio, the muse of history, the statue is depicted writing the events of the battle on a large tablet. Both the front and back faces of the shaft displays a bronze five pointed star, symbol of the 12th Army Corps. A short distance out in front of the breastworks is a small reddish companion marker identifying the position of the skirmish line of the regiment.
